About Cathy

Hi Ive been in the medical field in various levels of patient care over 35 years. I have prenursing training and education , Im a registered Phlebotomist and Medical Assistant, much more than a CNA. After caring for my 95 year old mom for 6 years; the realization needing an xtra hand, if nothing else to get a break , was challenging to locate a professional quality caregiver that actually knew what they were doing, and were reliable. It's important to have a good fit with your reliable caregiver. In order to achieve quality care, the well-being , help maintain as much independence as possible, and mentally stimulation; plus provide comfortably safe environment is crucial. I offer a variety of shifts, days, and nights, over-night and weekends /holidays stays, to assist, and provide that much needed break to the full time family caregivers. Especially if you are on your own and need a helping hand till you recover, I'm there for you. I enjoy making a difference helping those that really need it. If it will help you stay home versus a skilled facility I'll be there to assist where I can. I take pride in being punctual, accomplishing the tasks at hand, and providing you peace of mind you have someone you can rely upon. Majority of my past clients still think of me as family; that warms my heart Thank you for considering me

I'm a talkative friendly & outgoing person. I am passionate about nursing and health care....especially for the elderly! I went to school to be a nursing assistant when I was in my late 40's because straight out of college I got married (32 years now!) and had two daughters. AFTER the youngest one graduated from high school in 2010, I was then able to pursue my real dream of getting certified to be able to care for clients and hopefully make their lives a bit better!

$15.00/hour · Kingsland, TX
I am from Austin and have lived there all my life. I got married and recently moved to Kingsland for a calmer, quieter life. Before my father passed away, I volunteered at his assisted living facility in Austin. I worked there for 2 years until he passed in 2019. I got so much joy spending time with the residents and I loved listening to stories of life experiences, history, WW2, and having to grow up during the Great Depression. I am a very hard worker and am happy in my work. I give great attention to detail. I think my greatest achievement is my skill as a violinist. I have been playing for 47 yrs. and have performed in many different venues. I am also proud of my 2 grown sons. Joshua is a 24 yr old professional living in Austin and Dawson is a 19 yr old Lance Corporal in the Marines. I look forward to meeting you!
